Ok, I am trying to install pidgin from sources but had to install gtkspell before I could do that, and had to install enchant before I could install gtkspell. Unfortunately even after installing enchant configure for gtkspell is still not finding it. What should I do? I checked the help files and did not find and obvious solution.
Here is my console output. # ./configure --with-included-gettext configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-included-gettext checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/ginstall -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... ./install-sh -c -d checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes checking for GTKSPELL... configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 enchant >= 0.4.0 ) were not met: No package 'enchant' found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GTKSPELL_CFLAGS and GTKSPELL_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. # I don't know what the pkg_config_path is or how to adjust it, and pkg-config doesn't have a man page. O also don't know how to adjust gtkspell_sflags and gtkspell_libs. any ideas about what to do next. I am following these instructions in pet packaging. http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=35507 I am doing this because the updated versions of pidgin on this board don't work with 4.2.

We have thrown away the most valuable asset we had: the individual's right to oppose both flag and country when he believed them to be in the wrong. We have thrown it away; and with it all that was really respectable about that grotesque and laughable word, Patriotism."
